An Intermolecular π-Stacking Interaction Drives Conformational Changes Necessary to β-Barrel Formation in a Pore-Forming Toxin
The crystal structures of the soluble monomers of the pore-forming cholesterol-dependent cytolysins (CDCs) contain two α-helical bundles that flank a twisted core β-sheet. This protein fold is the hallmark of the CDCs, as well as of the membrane attack complex/perforin immune defense proteins and th...
